Ciaran Murphy claims his first success as a trainer

Mullingar horse trainer Ciaran Murphy notched up his first success in the training ranks as Enjoy D’Allen landed the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Rated Novice chase at Fairyhouse on Saturday.

A little over two weeks after Dot Love bowed out by winning a race named in her honour at the course, her successor with the licence at Mullingar’s Charlestown Stud got off the mark as the 7/2 chance raced to an easy six-length victory over the Oliver McKiernan-trained Lean Araig.
